ABSTRACT
An 39 year-old woman presented with neurotic and neurologic symptoms is described. Computerized tomography revealed contrast uptake in nodular form of oval centers and perilesional edema. Clinic characteristics and possible etiopatogeny are discussed. Post-mortem examination disclosed presence of a primary cerebral lymphoma type B, not involving other organs.
